Grand Theft Auto III is played from a third-person perspective in an open world single-player environment, allowing the player to interact with the game world at their leisure. The game is set within the fictional city of Liberty City, which is loosely based on New York City. The story features a mute, nameless protagonist, although he is later referred to as Claude in his cameo in the prequel Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. Claude is a bank robber who is left for dead by his girlfriend, and quickly becomes entangled in a world of gangs, crime, and corruption.

Upon its release, the game was acclaimed by many reviewers who praised its concept and gameplay, which was coupled with the use of a 3Dgame engine for the first time in the series. However, the game's violent and sexual content has been the source of much public concern and controversy. It became the best-selling video game of 2001, and has sold over 17 million copies as of 2011. The game is cited as a landmark in video games for its far-reaching influence within the industry. The success of Grand Theft Auto III was a significant factor in the series' subsequent popularity; as of 2008, five prequels set before the events of Grand Theft Auto III have been released, particularly Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories which revisits the Liberty City setting just three years prior.

Mick (screenplay)

Mick was a screenplay written by author, political activist, historian and producer Eoghan Harris in the early 1990s. It was intended to tell the story of Irish revolutionary leader Michael Collins. Harris verbally clashed with Neil Jordan, who was planning to produce his own film on the Irish leader, over the emphasis each placed on aspects of Collins's life. One area where they diverged was over longstanding rumours that Collins had been bisexual. Whereas Harris's script planned to state the rumour as fact, Jordan attributed Collins's constant physical touching of the men around him as macho heterosexual horseplay. Harris accused Jordan of sanitising Collins's sexual orientation so as not to offend CatholicIrish America, which had already been scandalised by claims that Padraig Pearse was gay.

Ultimately it was Jordan's film, using Jordan's script and Jordan's version of Collins's life, that was made, as Michael Collins, using Liam Neeson as Collins and, in what was subsequently criticised as a casting mistake, Julia Roberts as Collins's real life fianceé, Kitty Kiernan. Harris openly criticised the film, its contents, its casting and its divergences from the truth (which Jordan admitted, but said they were necessary for narrative purposes) in reviews and on television chat shows like the Late Late Show.
